Monograph of Malaysian artist Jalaini Abu Hassan, featuring works created between 1993 and 2005. In the words of the artist, 'Jalak, the rooster is a metaphor rich in significance. Jalak is the champion, brave and proud. It kindles feelings of nostalgia for the village we all come from. Jalak represents my spirit, my wanderings, and my struggles as an artist... Jalak represents a detailed chronological documentation, from 'Life Form' through 'Re-Found Object', from 'Linear Narratives' to 'WIP', 'Mantera' and 'Wet Paint', from expressionism to narrative pop, from conceptual symbolism to sem-realism.' Artist writings and biography are provided in the monograph.
